    Hello. Thank you for your input. I am aware, that this is more of a warning message, than a error. I´m just trying to figure out, what is my best way to go here. My plan was: Setup a repljob for the vm in a lets say hourly interval On the day of the migration, shutdown the vm and start the last replication manually Disable the cr job Start the replicated vm on the new pool, check it and if all is ok, use it as new vm, otherwise start the old vm. The documentation says "If you want to start a VM on your destination host without breaking the CR jobs". Tbh i dont care about breaking the job. If everything works fine, i dont need it anymore, if not, i can setup a new job pretty fast. I was just wondering, if the new vm will stay in "blocked mode" for ever. Kind regards

    @florent Thanks for your reply! We have started to migrate thousands of VMs, so disk transfer speed is important for us.. We will also do our detailed tests soon with different threads setting and publish it here. I think threads=1 is a good and logical default, but not efficient. Others might complain if you set it to a higher value. Configuration option would be a real good solution.

    @poddingue Confirmed working, thank you so much for the heads-up, this made my day! Got it wired into the n8n flow and it's running perfectly. One gotcha for anyone else landing here, name_description gets rejected with a 422 "excess property", it has to be nameDescription. Working body: { "nameDescription": "nginx, app-1, app-2 | 2026-06-01" }

    Second IP for Hosts Interface

    @jqueiroz said in Second IP for Hosts Interface: I have a situation where I would like to add a second IPv4 address to the management interface of a host. I am installing a host that will be used in another location and I would like to add the address of that location to the management interface before shipping the machine there. Is it possible to do this, or should I continue using the current procedure (making the necessary configurations and change the address shortly before shutting down the machine and packing it for transport)? there is a nuance between secondary IP and secondary MANAGEMENT IP if you have multiple NICS, you could add & configure the destination site IP on it, but it is not flagged management yet. once the server gets on the new site, you could access web ui by this IP address (or SSH) and then either go to web console/xs server or SSH and do the necessary to change management to the good PIF/IP ?

    Hi! ISO-SR over HBA/FC would be very nice, especially when migration form a SAN vmware-System to XCP-NG. One other thing is altering. Errors like "VM cannot be migrated" or similar should not be silent but should be very visible / even mailed to the admin. Another thing (could be cosmetical though) in my opinion is that a failed Rolling upgrade remains visible with a half fulled progress bar in the task-view. this is confusing.

    Large VM Migration fails, host has free disk - Storage_error

    I managed to do the migration by splitting over the two storages the remove system has. This made it work and I managed to move that one VM. However I still have a second one It's thick provisioned (LVM - never can remember the terms thin/thick). Offline isn't an option unfortunately since I need the services running, can't take if off for 15 hours. But since two of the services are docker containers, both having a separate disk of 500GB, I can make it work by setting up a two new systems and moving everything from the container there. Which would reduce the size by 1TB and make thing easier to manage. Was hoping I could finally upgrade the main xcp-ng last weekend.

    @Pilow Does disk show up after you do the snapshot? If it is able to do the snapshot there is a high chance it can boot up. So try booting up (and check for disk) and shut it down and do the snapshot at that time if the disk show up. It helps to boot up on the old v5 commit and check from that side too if you have both copy before the commit update. Yep I can confirm that snapshot doesn't always work. But using the older v5 that used to work before the update does get it showing up on the newer v5 commit if I go through whole snapshot, revert, etc. one of those case work.

    We are not energy efficiency experts, while EasyVirt people are. I think they already have some stuff and it might be just a matter of plumbing.

    Can't designate new master on XO source pool

    Tracked it down to it thinking there was a pool version mismatch... then when I tried to transition to a new master it would fail with Xmlrpc_client.Connection_reset ... digging deeper it was complaining that it couldn't restore from the wrong version. Lots of head banging later... I setup a backup for the pool metadata and forced the backup immediately. TADA... I can now change the master with no issues at all.

    Yes, there's a possible weird combo between XOSTOR and HA in some situations. Let me add @ronan-a or @dthenot in the loop. It's likely that XOA disconnection is just a visible symptom of something else. It's not ultra trivial to reproduce though.
